list life's happy moments

Today it was snowing. I didn’t get much sleep last night, had a few worries on my mind along with staying up later than I should have. I woke up this morning annoyed. I usually wake up and a few mins later head towards the computer to see what the virtual world has been up too. I peek out the window and saw that it had snowed over night and was still flurries were still falling. Its been about 5 years since I have had to dust off the car and warm it up. I miss a garage and heated at that.
Now with it being the holidays and all, the -work-the circus is missing quite a few of their clowns. Its been nice but rather boring too. There is a guy down the asile that was playing his music a little louder since everyone in our asile was gone. It was nice to hear some christmas music. We are not blessed not to have that piped in Muzak. So thank you Steve for sharing your chirstmas cheer. I am thankful that the bosses are not in either… it means longer lunches to get the extra ‘needs’ done.
And finally early christmas gifts. Mr.GS says I am not good at keeping secrets. LOL I have to laugh cause its usually when it benefits him. :P

This weekend was a bit busy with Mr.GS’s youngest birthday party on Saturday. I was able to met more his extended family. I am glad it all worked out well. Mr.GS’s oldest and my kid get along well and went snowboarding together. Another plus.
Writing a list for our Christmas dinner so that I could go join all the other people trying to shop for their holiday meals. I suppose this is where I should be thankful that Mr.GS enjoys cooking. If he cooks I will be glad to wash a few dishes. ;)
Got most of my present shopping done. Just waiting for the things I have ordered. :)

For some reason I have been feeling a bit frazzled more than normal. Mr.GS and I were able to spend a few hours of quality time together last night. (Get your mind out of the gutters!! You know who you are.)
Mr.GS poured us both a drink, we sat on the couch and just held each other in silence. It was the little boost I needed to get through the rest of this week.

Spending the day with my girlfriend Emily. We went shopping. I found the cutest pair of shoes. I didn’t get them yet

Edit: I DID get these! Love em!!

Last week and these last few days has been stressful… just a lot going on good and bad. During the last week Mr.GS wanted to go to the music store in town. He has been wanting to look at guitars. He has been needing a creative outlet for about the past year. He really loves golf and playing drums, but since a torn rotary cup in his shoulder since early this year has pretty much side lined him from his outlets. We have been to the music store a few times in the last 4 days. Hemming and hawing about if he should or should not get the guitar.
After yesterday being the most stressful of all days, he decided he wanted the guitar. When I got home from work, I listened to him play his heart out all night. It warmed my soul that I could watch Mr.GS find his creative outlet. :)

Beware of what you ask for… you just may get it!
During that conversation with Mr.GS last week, I had mentioned that his kids, my kid and I didn’t have much interaction with each other. Since we are trying to bring them all together. This past weekend his kids stayed the weekend and my kid stayed home a little longer. It was nice that they all got along well. For myself, everything went well. I just need to get use to more things going on in different directions. I am sort of glad that I at work, sitting at my desk alone with my computer and my thoughts.

Ok ok.. for the few out there I will admit that I didn’t want to work out tonight. My sciatic nerve has been acting up these last few days… you think the chocolate could have anything to do with it? This is the week MR.GS is with his kids. He wanted to work out tonight, so I went along with, bitching the whole way. I am secretly glad I did go. I went slow and steady and actually worked up a sweat.
We were also talking about our living situation… we both would like to be together more full time. He told me I was like crack. LOL, he just can not get enough of me. :)
I was in touch with most of my IRL friends today. Not sure if it reconnect day, but I know I needed it. As one of them said to me – I love hearing about people being in love, it’s one of the best feelings in the world isn’t it? Yes m’dear, yes it is.

I did well this morning. I ate my fiber bread with a little peanut butter, just soup and more fiber bread for lunch… This is where I blow it all to hell. I was wandering around cause I get the 2:00pm sleepys. I was talking to a few people here at work and I noticed the candy bowl. Someone had replenished it with their kids halloween candy. It must still be good its before christmas right?!!
Let me tell you I hit the mother load of all candy, there was snickers, butterfingers, kitkats, m & m’s both plain and peanut, payday, smarties…
I took a handful and thought I would save some… for later, yeah thats right later. Well as soon as I got to my desk…

I ate it all! :/
